2 CAS # Wt. % Portland cement Calcium oxide Ferric oxide Aluminum oxide Aluminum sulfate Calcium carbonate Magnesium oxide Eye Contact: Skin Contact: Inhalation: Ingestion: Section 4: FIRST AID MEASURES In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. If easy to do, remove contact lenses, if worn. Get medical attention immediately. In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse. Call a physician if irritation develops and persists. If breathing is difficult, remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Get medical advice/attention if you feel unwell. If swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Seek medical attention or call poison control immediately. General Advice: In case of accident or if you feel unwell, seek medical advice immediately (show the label or MSDS where possible). Note to Physicians: Symptoms may not appear immediately. Flammability: Not flammable by WHMIS criteria. Means of Extinction: Suitable Extinguishing Media: Treat for surrounding material. Unsuitable Extinguishing Media: Products of Combustion: May include, and are not limited to: oxides of carbon. Explosion Data: Section 3: COMPOSITION / INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS Section 5: FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES Sensitivity to Mechanical Impact: Sensitivity to Static Discharge: Protection of Firefighters: Keep upwind of fire. Wear full fire fighting turn-out gear (full Bunker gear) and respiratory protection (SCBA). Section 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Personal Precautions: Use personal protection recommended in Section 8. Isolate the hazard area and deny entry to unnecessary and unprotected personnel. Environmental Precautions: Keep out of drains, sewers, ditches, and waterways. Minimize use of water to prevent environmental contamination. Methods for Containment: Contain spill, then place in a suitable container. Do not flush to sewer or allow to enter waterways. Use appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). 2 / 7

3 Methods for Clean-Up: Vacuum or sweep material and place in a disposal container. Other Information: Handling: Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Do not swallow. Do not breathe dust. Good housekeeping is important to prevent accumulation of dust. Avoid generating dust. The use of compressed air for cleaning clothing, equipment, etc, is not recommended. Handle and open container with care. Launder contaminated clothing before reuse. When using do not eat or drink. Wash hands before eating, drinking, or smoking. Storage: Keep out of the reach of children. Keep container tightly closed. Store in dust-tight, dry, labelled containers. Keep containers closed when not in use. Avoid any dust buildup by frequent cleaning and suitable construction of the storage area. Do not store in an area equipped with emergency water sprinklers. Exposure Guidelines Exposure Limits ACGIH-TLV mg/m³ 1 mg/m³ (no asbestos and <1% crystalline Portland cement silica, respirable fraction) Calcium oxide 2 mg/m 3 Ferric oxide 5 mg/m 3 (iron oxide fume; dust as Fe) Aluminum oxide 10 mg/m 3 Aluminum sulfate Calcium carbonate 10 mg/m³ Magnesium oxide 10 mg/m 3 Engineering Controls: Use ventilation adequate to keep exposures (airborne levels of dust, fume, vapor, etc.) below recommended exposure limits. Personal Protective Equipment: Section 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE Section 8: EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION Eye/Face Protection: Wear approved eye (properly fitted dust- or splash-proof chemical safety goggles) / face (face shield) protection. Hand Protection: Wear suitable gloves. Skin and Body Protection: Wear suitable protective clothing. Respiratory Protection: A NIOSH approved dust mask or filtering facepiece is recommended in poorly ventilated areas or when permissible exposure limits may be exceeded. Respirators should be selected by and used under the direction of a trained health and safety professional following requirements found in ANSI s standard for respiratory protection (Z88.2). General Hygiene Considerations: Handle according to established industrial hygiene and safety practices. Section 9: PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES Appearance: Colour: Powder. 3 / 7
